Established in 1817, Teaninich is one of the early legal distilleries, founded by the Napoleonic war hero "Blind" Captain Hugh Munro. Munro, along with his brother General John Munro, were known as benevolent and caring landowners in a region severely affected by the Highland Clearances. This particular offering from the Jewish Whisky Company is a testament to the enduring legacy and craftsmanship of the Teaninich distillery, renowned for its distinctive Highland character. The Teaninich 2005 JWC Single Cask Nation 2nd Fill Bourbon Hogshead #487 is a 13-year-old whisky bottled in 2019, with an ABV of 56.2% and limited to just 277 bottles. This single cask bourbon, matured in a second-fill bourbon hogshead, brings out a harmonious blend of fruity and mineral notes, complemented by a touch of the grassy-buttery Teaninich signature. On the nose, it opens with a green-fruity bouquet, reminiscent of lemongrass, green grapes, banana, pineapple, and granadilla. There’s an intriguing savory element, akin to grape tomatoes, with hints of pickled ginger, club soda, and a whisper of white-chocolate creaminess. The medium-light texture offers a slightly tart upfront palate with flavors of pineapple, granadilla, green apple, and tangerine, transitioning to citrus and yellow plums. As the tasting progresses, mineral notes emerge – club soda, and even a nostalgic nod to Flintstones Vitamins. The slightly buttery finish is medium-short, effervescent, with green apple skins, oaky white wine, a touch of brininess, brown sugar, and tangerines, leaving a lingering impression.
This whisky is unique due to its maturation in a second-fill bourbon hogshead, which imparts subtle yet complex flavors, and its limited release of only 277 bottles, making it a rare find.
The flavor profile is a balanced blend of fresh fruits, spices, and earthy notes, with a medium-light texture and a slightly tart start that evolves into citrus and mineral notes.
Overall, the Teaninich 2005 JWC Single Cask Nation offers a complex and well-balanced flavor profile, featuring a harmonious mix of fresh fruit, spice, and earthy undertones.
As a seasoned whisky enthusiast, I can affirm that the Teaninich 2005 JWC Single Cask Nation is a remarkable expression. Its intricate blend of fruity, mineral, and grassy-buttery notes is both pleasing and intriguing. The balance achieved in the flavor profile, enhanced by the second-fill bourbon hogshead maturation, makes this a delightful and memorable dram, worthy of any whisky connoisseur's collection.
